CEVA signs contract with Iveco Group
0CEVA Logistics, a global leader in third-party logistics, signed a new contract with Iveco Group to operate a new 20,000-square-meter distribution center in Pouso, Alegre (Minas Gerais), Brazil.
Iveco, a global leader in the automotive industry, invested R$93 million in the development of the new Parts Distribution Center to support the growth of Iveco Group’s brands in Latin America and to enhance speed and efficiency in customer supply.
The construction of the new distribution center began in June with operations expected to begin in April 2026, replacing the current operation in Sorocaba, São Paulo, due to capacity constraints. The new Parts Distribution Center will occupy 20,000 square meters and boast state-of-the-art technology, creating a strategic hub for Iveco to better connect customers and suppliers while expanding its logistics operation. CEVA Logistics will be responsible for managing the site, including the logistics infrastructure, shipping and handling of Iveco Group’s materials.
The new warehouse will leverage a wireless warehouse management system (WMS), enabling traceability and real-time control of product movements. The technology aims to ensure greater speed, efficiency and accuracy in deliveries. The new facility was planned with future expansion in mind, enabling nimble growth and agile operations. The new venture will boost the local employment market and strengthen the Minas Gerais area as a strategic hub for national logistics.
CEVA Logistics has significantly expanded its warehousing operations in Brazil, reinforcing its position as one of the country’s main contract logistics players, including increasing its warehouse capacity by more than 150,000 square meters during the past 12 months, reaching a total of nearly 300,000 square meters nationwide. More than R$100 million has been invested in these operations, with an additional 120,000 square meters to be added by the end of 2025 and another 200,000 square meters planned for the following three years, all with the goal of 620,000 square meters of contract logistics space across the region by 2028. With both dedicated and multi-customer sites across the country, CEVA supports key sectors such as eCommerce, technology, automotive, beauty and healthcare.
This strong expansion reflects CEVA’s strategic focus in developing its large-scale and complex warehouse management solutions and delivering operational excellence, efficiency, and innovation for its customers.
Daniel Cortazzo, Automotive Sector Leader Director, LATAM, CEVA Logistics, said: “This new agreement with Iveco Group reinforces our partnership and reflects CEVA’s commitment to operational excellence and innovation in Brazil. The new Pouso Alegre Distribution Center will strengthen our strategic presence in the region and enable us to deliver even greater efficiency, agility, and service quality to Iveco Group’s growing operations in the region.”
